| I have the stainless bowls. They are heavier and can't tip over also I find that they are more sanitary than the plastic.

| I prefer the Stainless steel w/non skid bottom ... less bacteria build up. the plastic ones can accumulate bacteria after a while and you will have to replace it every so often.

| hmmmmmmmmm Hard question, we have so many bowls around here. I really like them all. Princess likes her glass bowl the most. I think the plastic ones are so cute. Mandy(our Rottie) has stainless steel bowls, because she picks them up and takes them outside. Poncho, (our Chihuahua) he could care less what bowl I put down, as long as there's food in it for him. LOL Sorry, I guess I didn't answer your question.

| Stainless with non skid bottom.Plastic can have a bacteria buildup even when you think they are clean.

| Stainless steel, non-skid. Plastic always gets spilled or turns into a chew toy (even if it WAS full to begin with). |

Me, too! I love all the cute ceramic dishes. I wouldn't try to sell the plastic. It causes dermatitis and that is what causes the pink spots on their noses and also problems with their lips. I wish they didn't even sell them anywhere.
